Could be, but the 2 line patch is all that's needed in practice to make the
format follow at least the main part of the standard.  The more complex
parts of the standard (e.g. the <file1>:<line1>-<file2>:<line2>) are pretty
dubious anyway: I've never seen them used and they are likely to suffer from
ambiguity (if you file names look like numbers, typically).

Why would that matter?
